(Submitter supplied) Abstract: Juvenile zebra finches learn to sing by imitating songs of adult males early in life. The development of the song control circuit and the song learning and maturation processes are highly intertwined, involving gene expression, neurogenesis, circuit formation, synaptic modification, and sensory-motor learning, which eventually lead to a mature song. To better understand the genetic mechanisms underlying these events, we used RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) to profile genome-wide transcriptomes in the HVC, a brain nucleus controlling song behavior, in juvenile and adult zebra finches.
